A Equinix Case Study
The customer, a Fortune 500 online gaming company, faced significant challenges with its gaming application, including latency, jitter, and a poor quality of experience (QoE) for its European users. These performance issues, stemming from a distant public cloud deployment, were directly impacting customer satisfaction and revenue. To resolve this, the company partnered with Equinix and Unitas Global.
Equinix and Unitas Global implemented a private cloud solution housed within Equinix IBX data centers in Europe. The solution utilized Unitas Global's Enterprise Private Cloud (EPC) hardware and its MISSIONCONTROL management platform. This deployment brought the application closer to end-users, which reduced latency by 50%, from 90ms to 45ms, dramatically improving performance and QoE. The fully managed solution allowed the gaming company to focus on development while benefiting from a single contract and SLA.
